Guardiola: Abduqodir Husanov amazed us
Pep Guardiola expressed very positive opinions about the Uzbek footballer Abduqodir Husanov. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
The cityxtra.co.uk website, which provides information related to Manchester City, published a detailed article about Husanov's 12-month activity in the team. It included important thoughts about the coach's attitude towards Husanov and the player's future.
It became known that after Yoshko Gvardiol and Ruben Dias were injured in the match against Chelsea, problems arose in City's defense. In this situation, Husanov began to play regularly as a central defender.
The club was forced to recall academy graduate Max Alley from loan. Nevertheless, City restored their game and defeated Wolverhampton 2-0.
To strengthen the defense, Mark Guehi was brought in from Crystal Palace, and he formed a reliable partnership with Husanov. At a press conference, Guardiola was asked questions about Husanov's growth and prospects in the team.
The coach gave a brief but meaningful answer: "He is the best. We are very pleased."
He also specifically praised Husanov's professional behavior and responsibility. Guardiola linked these qualities to the player's upbringing and the environment in Uzbekistan.
The coach emphasized that playing at a high level in the English Premier League is not easy, but Husanov is successfully overcoming these challenges. Guardiola also highly valued Husanov's versatility.
He can play confidently both on the right side of the defense and in the center. Considering that Manchester City is competing for several trophies in the second half of the season, Husanov's role is expected to increase further.
In the match against Wolverhampton, his participation played a major role in the team's clean sheet. Now, decisive games in the Champions League are next.
According to the source, Husanov may start in the match against Galatasaray. This indicates the coach's trust in him.
A player trusted by Guardiola usually does not appear by chance but earns his place on the field with his skill. Abduqodir Husanov's career has now moved beyond the "given a chance" stage to the "consolidated the opportunity" level.
His future looks very bright.
